Google intends for its new Pixel XL phone to compete against Apple's iPhone 7. In the presentation we were able to know its appearance and many of its features, which have nothing to envy to those of Apple being more or less at a similar price. The most important fact for those of Cupertino is that at a sale price of 769 dollars, they are achieving higher profit margins than those of an iPhone.

Google will earn 410 dollars for each Pixel XL sold

According to the analysis by the IHS company, the 32GB Pixel XL is costing Google about $ 285.75 to manufacture each. With a sale price of $ 769, Google would be earning $ 410 for each unit sold (less than any other cost). According to IHS, the profit margins per unit sold would be better than those of a 32GB iPhone 7, since it is costing you somewhat cheaper to obtain the components.

With Pixel XL, Google seeks to capture the attention of Apple's average consumers, who are the ones who buy high-end phones. Whether they will be successful remains to be seen, but the data provided by IHS suggests that Google is capable of obtaining the components at a price similar to that of any other phone manufacturer such as Apple, which is what Andrew Rassweiler, senior director, himself says. Price Benchmark for IHS Markit: "Google is paying the same prices for the same components as other top-tier phone manufacturers."
